opportunity to cross-sell other Immedia services. 
 
 
"Over the next year we aim to maintain our market leading position as the 
one-stop shop for any company, big or small, seeking the most professional 
service in the digital out-of-home media sector."

  Chairman's Statement 
 
 
 
 
2008 was a year of improvement for Immedia and we have delivered a solid 
performance against a turbulent economic background. We are pleased to be able 
to announce that we have moved into profit, a result achieved through tighter 
cost controls across the business and up-selling new services to our clients. 
 
 
While revenue for the year was marginally lower at GBP3,875,010 compared to 
GBP3,904,815 for 2007, Immedia achieved a pre tax profit of GBP82,934 for the 
year which was a significant improvement on the 2007 pre tax loss of 
GBP1,355,410. Furthermore, the company has maintained its record of strong cash 
generation, with cash and cash equivalents of GBP883,197 at the year-end, again 
a significant improvement on the prior year balance of GBP661,845. 
 
 
In November we were pleased to welcome Mark Horrocks to the Board as a 
Non-Executive Director. Mark has held extensive positions in the City and we 
believe that Immedia will benefit from his wealth of experience. I would also 
like to take this opportunity to thank all our staff for their hard work and 
enthusiasm over the period in helping the business grow. 
 
 
We are operating in an evolving sector that is seeing growth in demand for 
out-of-home digital media solutions across a variety of markets, including 
retail, leisure and finance. Immedia has the skills to take advantage of this 
increasing demand for content and we continue to develop new innovative 
solutions to meet our clients' needs. 
 
 
In light of the current economic conditions we are cautious about the year ahead 
but believe that the strength of our product offering and the breadth of our 
services position us well to continue to serve the needs of our high quality 
client base and in doing so attract new customers.

Business Review 
 
 
I am pleased to present our full year results for the financial year ending 31 
December 2008. 
 
 
Results & Financial Performance 
 
 
The year was a challenging one for Immedia but we maintained our focus on cost 
control and profitability and recorded a move to both operating and pre tax 
profit. Revenues for the year were marginally lower at GBP3,875,010 (2007: 
GBP3,904,815). Pre tax profit increased to GBP82,934 from a pre tax loss of 
GBP1,355,410 in 2007. 2007's results were impacted by the GBP1,055,225 write-off 
of Cube's intangibles. As reflected in the current year results we do not 
anticipate any further impairment charges. 
 
 
During the year the Group spent GBP109,000 on the fitting out and equipping of 
its new offices in Newbury, of which GBP66,000 was financed by a three year 
covenant-free unsecured bank loan bearing interest at 4% above bank base rate. 
This cost included expenditure in improved technology and equipment for the 
delivery of the Group's services, and further investment in these areas is 
planned to ensure Immedia's services continue to be market leading. 
 
 
The Group has continued to strengthen its balance sheet over the period. We 
continue to rigorously control our costs and the Group remains cash generative 
with GBP883,197 cash in the bank as at 31 December 2008 (31 December 2007: 
GBP661,845). 
 
 
On the basis of current financial projections prepared up to the end of 2010, 
recent news of contract renewals, continuing improvements in management of 
costs, and ongoing availability of facilities, the Directors are satisfied that 
the Group has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable 
future and consequently the financial statements have been prepared on the going 
concern basis. 
 
 
Subscription Stations 
 
 
Our subscription radio stations continue to perform well, with new opportunities 
to help our clients with product development. We have integrated the radio and 
visual strands of our business and have been encouraged by the strong growth of 
our installation and maintenance business. 
 
 
On 2 June 2008 we were delighted to announce a two year contract with Roadchef 
to provide a brand new live radio station to all 29 Roadchef motoring service 
areas in the UK. This station was successfully launched in July 2008. 
 
 
Also in July we announced a significant memorandum of understanding with a 
leading retail banking brand. The trials of our RadioVision product with this 
company have been very successful and we announced the signing of our contract 
with a major UK high street bank on 1 April 2009. 
 
 
Our audio and visual equipment installation and maintenance services business 
has continued to expand over the period, and has driven growth by providing 
additional services to existing contracted clients and to new clients who 
initially seek ad hoc services. There is a significant opportunity for 
cross-selling our complementary radio services and we expect a number of these 
clients will look to sign longer term contracts. 
 
 
Our relationship with HSBC remains strong and our HSBC Live! subscription radio 
station continues to broadcast to over 1,000 sites across the UK. We have 
extended the service to HSBC call centres and other corporate buildings. 
 
 
IKEA Live! has been well received across all its 21 UK locations, including the 
new store in Southampton, and we will bring Immedia to Ireland with the opening 
of IKEA's Dublin store later in 2009. 
 
 
Lloyds Pharmacy Live! operates across all 1,500 stores and we look forward to 
further developing our longstanding relationship with the team and assisting 
with new areas of product development during our seventh year of service. 
 
 
We have been working closely with SPAR and provide a subscription model to more 
than 1,400 stores across the UK, replacing the free to air service. This has 
resulted in a lower cost base as well as an increase in revenue. Over the course 
of the year we continued to install our services across more of its 2,500-strong 
estate. 
 
 
We are now broadcasting GAME Live! to 379 GAME stores across the UK, having 
moved on from pre-contract trials and installations in 2007 to a full 
subscription service in the first half of 2008. 
 
 
We are currently trialling other radio stations and believe that our breadth of 
offering will continue to attract new clients. 
 
 
Current Trading and Outlook 
 
 
2008 was a challenging year for Immedia but we believe that over the period the 
company has matured: Immedia is not just a radio business and we are actively 
working to broaden our offering. In 2009, we intend to increase the flexibility 
of our services by offering a wider range of music and video content offerings 
to bolster our core business. This will enable clients of any size to purchase 
the content they need, in line with their requirements and budgets. We will 
continue to develop our screen business, providing more hardware, telecoms and 
visual content, and will support this through the further growth of our 
installation and maintenance business. 
 
 
While we remain cautious about the outlook for 2009, we believe that our 
services are the best on the market and we will continue to search for ways to 
bring our offering to new audiences, while developing new opportunities among 
our strong portfolio of existing clients.

  Notes 
(forming part of the financial statements) 
 
 
The financial information set out above does not constitute the Company's 
statutory accounts for the years ended 31 December 2008 or 2007 but is derived 
from those accounts. Statutory accounts for 2007 have been delivered to the 
registrar of companies, and those for 2008 will be delivered in due course. 
 
 
The auditors have reported on those accounts; their report was (i) unqualified, 
(ii) did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew 
attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report and (iii) did not 
contain a statement under section 237(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 1985. 
 
 
The 2008 accounts will be delivered to the registrar of companies following the 
Company's Annual General Meeting. The Annual Report and Notice of Annual General 
Meeting will be posted to the shareholders by 19 May 2009 and will be made 
available on the Company's website (www.immediaplc.com) at that time. 
 
 
This preliminary announcement was approved by the Board on 7 April 2009.
